  1. Modeling Mental Spatial Reasoning About Cardinal Directions.Holger Schultheis, Sven Bertel & Thomas Barkowsky - 2014 - Cognitive Science 38 (8):1521-1561.
    This article presents research into human mental spatial reasoning with orientation knowledge. In particular, we look at reasoning problems about cardinal directions that possess multiple valid solutions , at human preferences for some of these solutions, and at representational and procedural factors that lead to such preferences. The article presents, first, a discussion of existing, related conceptual and computational approaches; second, results of empirical research into the solution preferences that human reasoners actually have; and, third, a novel computational model that (...)

  • Parameter Inference for Computational Cognitive Models with Approximate Bayesian Computation.Antti Kangasrääsiö, Jussi P. P. Jokinen, Antti Oulasvirta, Andrew Howes & Samuel Kaski - 2019 - Cognitive Science 43 (6):e12738.
    This paper addresses a common challenge with computational cognitive models: identifying parameter values that are both theoretically plausible and generate predictions that match well with empirical data. While computational models can offer deep explanations of cognition, they are computationally complex and often out of reach of traditional parameter fitting methods. Weak methodology may lead to premature rejection of valid models or to acceptance of models that might otherwise be falsified. Mathematically robust fitting methods are, therefore, essential to the progress of (...)
